(updated March 18, 2005)

This is the help page for a PokerPulse room Details and Chart Feature Page.

We track and prepare detail pages for Action Poker, AmericasCardRoom, Apex Poker Network, B2B Poker, Bodogpoker.com, Cryptologic, Full Tilt Poker, Ladbrokes, MVP Poker, Pacific Poker, Paradise, PartyPoker, Planet Poker, PokerRoom.com, PokerStars, Pokertropolis, PrimaPoker, UltimateBet, and World Poker Exchange.

Detail pages are typically updated 2 to 4 times an hour. There are minor differences in the information provided on each room / network detail page. Coverage of PokerRoom.com (PokerNetwork.com) at PokerPulse is limited and does not have the same level of details as we provide for the other rooms / networks we cover.

Note: PokerPulse tracks and reports on poker networks. Action Poker, Apex Poker Network, CryptoLogic, PartyPoker, PrimaPoker and World Poker Exchange are examples of poker networks. Ladbrokes, ParadisePoker, and Poker Stars are examples of stand independent rooms that are not part of any network.

Other Information  
24-hr EMREH

EMREHs are a deprecated metric setup when PokerPulse first launched. For backward compatibility, we have left EMREHS around. The EMREH metric it isn't used in any of our current reports or page ranking.

The EMREH is the Estimated Maximum Rake Equivalent Hands. A hand with a $60 pot counts as 1 EMREH. A hand with a $6 pot counts as 0.1 EMREH and a $6000 pot counts as 1 EMREH.

24-hr Ring Game Pots
This is an estimate of the total value of all ring game pots from all hands played over the past 24 hours. This estimate is update each hour based on a very simple approximation of the Ring Game Pots and Ring Rake Estimates we report via the PokerPulse DE reports. The ring game pots estimate here can be up to 25% off from the DE Report estimates. The DE report estimate is believed to be more accurate. Please click here for more details on PokerPulse reports.
